UFC heading back to Boston in 2013

The city of Boston has always been a player when it comes to the “fight game”, producing a number of polished pugilists and a rabid fanbase to support them. Given that reputation, in addition to UFC President Dana White hailing from the region, it seems like the Octagon would make “Bean Town” an annual stop on the company’s schedule. However, the UFC hasn’t been back since a show in August 2010.

Fortunately, that will change in a matter of months.

“We’ll do Boston this year,” said White to reporters on Saturday night after UFC 158 had wrapped. “It’ll be sooner than people think. I just can’t announce it yet.”
